Thanks Colby
It's not the best quality do to the sun and heavy crop, but I still thought it was a fun shot as well
I'm glad you like the frames! If you want you can break down the actions and change them pretty easily. The actions can get a bit complicated though.
I highly recommend getting a subscription to lynda.com. You can then watch all the training videos they offer for photoshop! The fundamentals are key and will give you a solid foundation for the real fun in PS
They also offer videos that go in depth on each aspect of photoshop. Thats where the actions come in. They have a whole trianing series just on actions! Thats how I learned to use them and created the frames. It's pretty easy believe it or not, but there is an order of operations as to how the actions work.
Also once you have the fundamentals of PS down, I highly recommend Lynda.com - Photoshop CS3 Creative Photographic Techniques. I'm going through this series now in my spare time and it is awesome!! Chris Orwig who is a Pro photographer teaches it, and his insight into photography/ photoshop is incredible! Very inspiring and very talented in all aspects.
PS:
I'm in NY. This shot was taken in Florida, NY at my other Brothers house
Best,
